My HD brows are hideous!!

Ok so after 6 weeks of growing out my overplucked brows I have today had HD brows done after seeing everyone rave about them.

They are awful!! My eyebrows look like really dark, huge flat slugs sitting on my face.

Not only have I paid £25 for this monstrosity but I have no idea how to even fix them now. The stylist just kept saying I need to grow more hair in pointing to sparse patches where hair has never existed and then coloured them in (with what looks like a sharpie) to hide them.

My daughter lovingly declared that I look like a villager from minecraft, I have no idea what that is but I can't imagine it to be a good look.

I blame mumsnet for making me believe this HD hype. Will try and get some pics up so you can see how awful they are.

Don't even think of thinning them and adding an arch woman: you are giving good brow!

I think they look really nice!

I had mine done on Friday and I know what you mean though, I think it's the darkness of the tint and the thickness / shape. I'm still a bit unsure about mine but getting used to them especially as the tint is wearing off.

Mine have also given me a hideous rash across my whole forehead which is attractive Hmm

I can also recommend the rapid brow from boots , amazing stuff! HD brows lady said it will grow eyelashes too if you have stumpy ones like me.

Here they are now the pencil has been washed off and tint faded a bit. Prefer them like this then filled.

They look fine! Some HD brows I've seen are very dramatic. I recently had mind tinted and shaped and I felt like they took over my whole face. They didn't, it just took a while to get use to! You're look fine Smile

I came on expecting to see some really bad eyebrows, but I have to say they look really nice. I think like others said, you just need to get used to them.

It's amazing how much time I can spend discussing eyebrows ???????? my girlfriend thinks I've gone insane and just keeps repeating "they are just eyebrows who even notices".

It think it was her dodgy filling them in that made them look a bit odd at first, they look miles better in the second lot of photos, really nice and natural.

I'd keep them at that shape and defintely not go thinner.

I'd recommend the rapidbrow stuff if you want to grow bits back. After over a year of waiting the inner cm I had over plucked forever with it. It's sometimes as cheap as £20 on Amazon and after the first couple of months you only need to use it every couple of days to maintain the growth, which works out cheaper than all the salon treatments I had to try and get them looking good.
